I'm Sorry For Me
I'm sorry that I'm here
I'm sorry, but I haven't shed a single tear
I'm sorry for the trouble,
I've caused on your behalf
And it doesn't seem all right for me
to listen to your sweet laugh
But even when you say it,
say I've done nothing wrong,
You are sincere, deep inside,
but I know I don't belong
I dream of my acceptance
in the big, big world
But more so I wish I could
have my heart unfurled
By you-
my heart unfurled by you,
is all I ever wanted
Though I'm much to young for such things,
there is a reason- my past is haunted
Haunted, you see, by terrible things
Bullies, words, and depression,
the list goes on and on
The reason for my yearning,
Why I seem to be long gone,
Is written in my history:
I think about love and such,
Maybe because I want it so much
I just wanted a friend,
just a friend to be by my side
But it seem this one simple request
has caused worlds to collide
Is it so much to ask
for one simple friend?
Apparently so.
Yes, it's much to comprehend
Just a companion I desired,
I didn't like you that way at first
But, oh, why'd it have to be so hard;
you've caused my heart to burst
I quiet explosion it was,
but an explosion all the same
For me to quietly like you
was my only aim
And it still is, of course-
could you expect any less?
But now you seems much different,
and it's more than a guess
Withdrawn and reserved you are,
at first we laughed together
But now you know to much to hide the feelings,
or is it something in the weather?
You'll never hear these feelings from me;
I'll stay as silent as a stone
For I will not mess up our friendship anymore,
my cover shall not be blown
Fake smile on my face,
head held high,
I never shed a single tear,
never did I cry
Pity for myself
is the feeling I felt least
Only longing for a friend,
sadness for what I put you through,
though you say I'm no beast
I'm sorry that I'm here
I'm sorry, but I haven't shed a single tear
I'm sorry for the trouble,
I've caused on your behalf
And it doesn't seem all right for me
to listen to your sweet laugh
But even when you say it,
say I've done nothing wrong,
You are sincere, deep inside,
but I know I don't belong
